The swimming pool complex is accessible to you almost all year round. On Christmas, you had better stay at home.

The water temperature ranges from 26 °C to 38 °C. Two sitting pools, a flow pool with massage jets, a swimming pool, or a recreational pool will perfectly fill your time during the day and evening.

People knew about the healing effects of water enriched with various minerals as early as Ancient Rome. It is no wonder that the power of this source is still used today to help relax tired muscles, heal pain, and strengthen immunity. Geothermal water at the swimming pool is pumped from two boreholes – one from a depth of 1,742 m and the other from 2,502 m.

However, if you prefer muscle relaxation through the hands of skilled masseurs, you can choose from an offer of Thai massages. Once a person gets tired after such physical activity, they will be pleased by refreshments in the bar and restaurant. In the summer period, a rich animation program is prepared for everyone. You can also play beach volleyball, football, or keep an eye on children playing on the playground.

And why visit this specific swimming pool? Enjoying the beneficial effects of water on the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, as well as the respiratory and cardiovascular systems, will certainly help. Families with children, seniors, and couples will fill their program during their stay thanks to water massages, activities, and attractions. However, if you would like to experience the surroundings, please do. You will find the Termálne kúpalisko vo Vrbove at the crossroads of cycling routes. From the saddle of a bicycle, you can visit the nearby towns of Poprad, Kežmarok, Levoča, and Spišská Nová Ves. Plan a trip to the peaks of Vysoké Tatry, or along the hiking trails in Slovenský raj.

Where the past of Spiš meets art

Are you looking for a place where the story of the land meets human creativity and legends of ancient giants? Would you like to be surrounded by the raw beauty of a former mining quarry, where the wealth of the earth was once extracted, but today you will find peace surrounded by art?

In the village of Hnilčík in the Spiš region, you will come across the Obri v raji area, which was created by the reclamation of an industrial space. Today, instead of mining machinery, you will discover an open-air gallery where geological rock layers are complemented by installations inspired by the local mining past. The project connects history with a new vision of land use and invites you to discover the nooks and crannies of this area at your own pace.

In the area, you will see a collection of sculptures and objects made from natural materials that recall the mining tradition and the ancient legend of giants.

The space is adapted for cyclists, and during the winter months, it serves as a base for winter activities.

Who is this place suitable for?

The place is suitable for families with children, tourists, cyclists, and dog owners who seek an unconventional connection between nature and industrial history. Due to the rugged surface of the quarry, we recommend suitable footwear. Parking is possible near the designated areas.
